Rob, You never used braille since school? Hard to believe! i typed for almost 36 years for my job, but I never stopped wishing I could use braille for it! I love typing, but braille is my preferred, and when grade 2 comes in this app is going to be revolutionary for braille users! I love FleksY, but this will be even faster for braille users. Now, if I could just keep my fingers from hitting Where they shouldn't. Still not comfortable holding the phone quite yet. Straying ring fingers, so a lot of deletes. Getting better, though.
